Mataṅga–Śakra Dialogue on Tapas, Status, and Moral Qualities
सप्तावरान् सप्त परान् पितृस्तेभ्यश्व ये परे । पुमांस्तारयते गज्जां वीक्ष्य स्पृष्टवावगाहु च
saptāvarān sapta parān pitṝs tebhyaś ca ye pare | pumāṁs tārayate gaṅgāṁ vīkṣya spṛṣṭvā avagāhya ca ||
گنگا کا دیدار، اس کے پانی کا لمس اور اسی میں غسل کر لینا—بس اسی سے انسان اپنے خاندان کے سات پشت کے آباء و اجداد اور سات پشت کی آنے والی اولاد، بلکہ ان سے بھی ماورا پدرانہ اسلاف اور نسلوں کی نجات کا سبب بن جاتا ہے۔
सिद्ध उवाच
Educational Q&A
Reverent contact with the Gaṅgā—seeing, touching, and bathing—functions as a powerful act of purification whose merit is understood to extend beyond the individual to one’s ancestors and descendants, emphasizing responsibility to lineage and the transformative value of sacred practice.
A Siddha is instructing the listener about the spiritual efficacy (māhātmya) of the Gaṅgā, stating that simple acts of devotion toward her waters can bring deliverance to multiple generations of one’s family line.
